She needs help paying next month's rent

Lost my job a while back, finally ran out of savings this month(even after cutting down on all essentials) and still had bills to pay, was too proud to ask for help(+ not like there are that many people that I could even ask), so had to resort to prostitution to make ends meet.

Does she sound legit?

Like all things in life, rarely, are things easy.

I don't think it's an ad. At least it's not supposed to be; reddit is a news aggregation and discussion site, not an ad site.

I have to agree with Tammy. And BCG it may not be an advertising site but sounds like an ad to me LOL

Here's the part that had me wondering:

For one, most people don't commit. 2/3s of the guys who contact you will just play email tag asking questions before disappearing. Only 1/3 will actually have the courage to go through and call. Out of those, half are just perverts who just want to hear you talk about sex before hanging up. And even when you get someone to commit to a meeting, sometimes they'll end up flaking.

Any truth to that? I admit being a flake a few times in the beginning, but I'm pretty good at following through, now.

As far as whether this gal is legit, I haven't the foggiest. My intuition is pretty damn lousy. I don't read people well.

Whatever it is, I would tend to be on the cautious side and would probably pass for tried and tested.

It wouldn't surprise me. The proportions may be exaggerated, but I'd not be surprised if the majority of callers "flake out".

One thing to consider, though, is that we don't know how many of those perceived flake-outs (from her point of view) might be "shopping around", and actually booked with some other provider and not her. I'd be very interested in the experiences of any ladies who wish to share it.

This is another factor w/r/t "shopping around". If this girl is advertising via BP or the local alternative newsweekly's classified ads, and not present on an established hobby board, a fair number of her callers who flake out may be sincere hobbyists who are feeling her out because she isn't "tried and tested", and then opting not to take a risk on her.

It's impossible to read people via email/PM/board post vice face to face. Too damn many verbal (inflection) and nonverbal cues are missing.
